This time of year can be especially busy with travel and family gatherings, which is why I've missed posting the last two weeks. But I couldn't let the year end on that note! Since my last post, I've seen a lot of family and met up with old friends, and I've got to say, that's … Continue reading Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Odds & Ends 12/04-12/10
Well, I did it. I finally wrote the words "The End." It's a milestone that brings a mix of emotions: relief over finishing, excitement over the next step forward, and a little bit of sadness as my characters' journeys come to an end. But not to worry, I'm far from finished with them. Now comes … Continue reading Odds & Ends 12/04-12/10

I tried to look on the bright side … Continue reading Odds & Ends 10/30-11/05

This week has been very productive! I'm so close to finished with my current project I can barely stand it. I want to get what is in my brain on the paper so badly, but my hands just don't seem fast enough!

Odds & Ends 10/2-10/8
This week got off to a great start. I got quite a bit of writing done & had things set up to go into a big scene I was really looking forward to tackling. Alas, we all know what happens to even the best made plans. I didn't write many more words for the last … Continue reading Odds & Ends 10/2-10/8
